Changes in hair from MSM

[Britt]

How long did it take for you to see any changes? I've been taking it along with biotin for the past month and can't report any "real" change . I've never taken the two supplements simultaneously, so it's a little experiment for me . Oh, I do realize that sometimes it does make me a little gassy .

It took two weeks of MSM before I noticed a change. It took a few months before it was stopped changing. I didn't notice much from biotin either.

From msm, my hair is so straight. it is wavy and i was never wavy. i had tight curls. it is softer too. it took maybe 3 months. you will definitely see it. i am not sure i like the change. i think i wont be able to do a super relaxer. with hardly any curl pattern, i am wondering what relaxer i would use if the hair is practically straight. i also wonder if it is weaker because it is soft. it is strong but sometimes i interpret softer to be weak.
the hair is also shiny. i took 1000 mg in the am and pm when i started. now i only take 1 at night because it gives me gas and affects my cycle. so far once a day works. hope this info helps.

Wow, something must really be up with my body .

As a rule of thumb you want to give a vitamin 3 months to see results. I noticed results in about that amount of time maybe a little less. I love MSM it allows me to stretch longer.

Or something's really up w/ mine. My hair (and not just the root) felt softer after 2 weeks. My skin felt softer too.

I made a promise to stick it out for at least 3 months to see what results I will get.

I've been taking MSM regularly for about 2 months, and I've noticed softer skin and new growth too. And I do think my curl pattern has loosened up a bit. I take 2000 mg/day.

I've been taking msm for 3 years and the one thing I can say is that my new growth is much stronger yet softer and stays in my scalp.

Also I notice more things during the times when Im not taking it. This is usually when I run out of it and take too long to buy more. It only takes two weeks for me to notice the difference... I feel pain in certain parts of my body after working out. My watch would irritate my wrist. Also, I begin to shed more. That's when I realize just how valuable msm has been to my life. Now I never go without it.

I read somewhere that it detoxes the body. Perhaps, if you are toxic (not hard with our eating practices) then it takes longer. Also, I was taking those stupid Natrol MSM pills and found out they weren't pure. I guess it would have taken me a while to see any results.

That could be it too. I am trying to eat better.

I've been taking MSM & Biotin for about a month. I haven't really noticed any changes in my hair yet. I'm giving it another month.

what brand are you taking and are you taking pills or powder?

It makes my hair softer and my new growth less curly/nappy. My skin is very smooth but it's more sensitive. for example, my clay mask that I always use stings when it didn't before, and I got a bikini wax yesterday and oh.my.God that was sooo painful, when it usually isn't. I started with 1/8 teaspoon in September 06 and slowly worked my way up to a teaspoon in the mornings.
